CONTRACT FOR STADIUM IS GIVEN
On Saturday, May 1, the executive committee inct and selected the bid of
Louis des Cogncts and Company for the construction of part of the stadium
this year. The bid of the des Cognets Company was approved and recommended by the Alumni Stadium Committee of Engineer after a tabulation of
all bids received on April 30.
Two of the bids received for the erection of eight sections were almost
the same. The Clarke, Stewart and Wood Company submitted a bid of
$149,650 for the construction of eight sections and Louis des Cogncts and Company's bid for the same number of sections was $148,920, making des Cogncts
the low bidder in this case by $730. A third bid from the Turner Construction Company was for $204,384.
The funds in the hands of the building committee now arc not sufficient
to build the eight sections this year and bids were also submitted for the erection of five sections with the option of another if aranged before a certain date.
For the erection of five sections Louis des Cogncts and Company offered
to do the work for $100,000 and to build the sixth section if desired for
The company offered to assist in financing this sectioti by carrying suitable collateral paper for a period of one, two and three years, and to contribute
$1,000 towards the financing of this section. The offer includes cast iron scat
supports for the section named and gives the Executive Committee until August to decide whether the last section will be built this year.
Clarke, Stewart and Wood agreed to build the same five sections for
and to add the sixth section on the north side for the additional sum of
$17,240 with collateral paper for one, two and three years.
After tabulating the two bids which were lowest the Stadium Committee
recommended that the Executive Committee accept the bid of Louis des Cog-neand Company for the construction of five sections with the cast iron seat
supports, the work to be completed by October 1 and with the option of contracting fo rthe last section by August 1.
J. I. Lyle, chairman of the building committee, agreed over long distance telephone to the recommendation of the rest of the committee and added that des
Cognets be requested to put Maury Crutchcr in charge of the work, which will
be done.
Crutcher is a graduate of the class of '17 and a former captain of the Wildcats. It will please the Alumni to know that an old Wildcat star who is also
an efficient engineer, will be in charge of the work.
The Stadium Building Committee will place a man on the grounds for inspection of the work, for the University authorities are determined that the
stadium on Stoll Field shall be the best in the South and will take every precaution to see that it is what it should be.
Work on staking out the ground began last Tuesday and before long the
dream of those who first saw the possibility of a stadium there will be on the
way to realization, made possible by the loyalty of alumni in almost every state
and in several countries.
One thing which has pleased the Executive Committee is the fact that no
complaint of any member of the Association has reached them on the choice
of the company to do the work.

they took in entertaining the visitors
from the different high schools.
The high school students also dc
serve praise for the excellence of the
work they did here and the gentlemanly conduct they maintained while in
the city.
Many of the teams were trained by
members of the Alumni Association
who personally took charge of bringing their teams to Lexington.
It
was with genuine sorrow that the
news of the death of Miles Austin
Quirey, of Stttrgis, was received. Two
years he had attended the track meets
of the high schools here and the nature of his work and the charm of his
character had given the University
officials with whom he came in contact the hope that by next year he
would be listed among the students.
His death resulted from an automobile accident near Mitchell, Iud., while
he was on his way home after the
track meet last week.
To the other members of the high
school debating and track teams the
association extends appreciation of the
good work they did while here and
hopes to sec as many of them as possible back next fall or the year after
as students.

HOME COMING PREPARATIONS

d

At a meeting last week of die active
chapter .of Alpha Delta Sigma, honorary journalistic fraternity, the date
of the third annual gridiron dinner was
set for Monday, June 9.
In former
years the dinner has always been held
on the night of the first week of commencement. This year due to the fact
that commencement and examinations
are altogether it will not be possible
to follow the former plan.
A letter received from Senator A.
O. Stanley announced that the Kentucky Senator would be glad to attend
the gridiron dinner if the date could
be set June 9 or 10. Partly on this
account and also because of the
change of plans in commencement the
fraternity named June 9 as the date.
The committees named to prepare
the work this year includes both members of the active chapter and alumni
members who are doing journalistic
work on the Lexington papers. A list
will be prepared by the committee in
charge of invitations, but as the affair
is primarily a University of Kentucky
affair any alumnus or former student
of the University who desires to attend
the dinner is cordially invited to drop
a card to the chapter or to any individual member of the fraternity and
ask for a reservation. The fact that
any man has attended the University
makes him eligible for the affair.

A number of letters have reached
from members of the

classes which hold reunions this year
announcing that they will be here for
the reunion. Assistant Dean W. E.
Freeman, of the class of '04, recently
sent the office a copy of a letter which
he has mailed to every member of his

"This is the year for the reunion of

it a real 'humdinger.' The commencement exercises this year will be held as

member of the class of '19, urging them
to get back for their first real reunion.
The classes which hold reunions this
year are 1869, 1889, 1894, 1899, 1904,
1909, 1914, 1919 and 1921.

The Alumni Office hopes to receive
